The end is nigh for Reiss Colwell on EastEnders – and with actor Jonny Freeman set to leave the soap, it appears that the end may be very nigh indeed. The pressure has been getting to hapless villain Reiss of late, with things spiralling out of control ever since he murdered comatose wife Debbie.
As his finances circled the drain, Reiss took dramatic action, smothering Debbie in her hospital bed. This certainly cut down on expensive care home fees, but Reiss also managed to put pregnant Sonia in the frame for murder.
Desperate Reiss only doubled down on his desperate behaviour, kidnapping Bianca when she uncovered the truth, and holding her hostage in a soundproofed warehouse. With Reiss set on keeping his own secret, things aren’t looking good for Sonia – but his lies are bound to be exposed soon, especially with Bianca determined to free herself and clear Sonia’s name.
